That's great! I had no idea that was A:M when you showed it on Facebook. Never heard of Pop! before, however. Must have been after my time.

Roger has fixed the problem on his computer with a bios setting change. I will try to get him to document that. He has a Lenovo also, although it is a different model number.

I like her bank into the last turn in the "departure" clip, you should try to get that into the first turn. I think the Depth of field is too severe in the second clip. I think AM Films had a hacking problem and had to be taken offline. I don't know if Jason has gotten back on that.

No bald spots!

Here is an example of simulating dispersion which is a prism-like effect https://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=37216&hl=dispersion

Short answer.... No. A:M can account for the refraction of light seen through a transparent solid but doesn't bend light rays projecting through a solid. It's remotely possible one might get your effect with A:M's caustics abilities but A:M doesn't normally account for the differing refraction of the light spectrum. All light is bent the same. Possibly by setting up a multi-pass situation where the color of the light and the refraction setting of the solid is changed over the course of the render one might get a spectrum.

I'm going to wait until either of you has tried v19 since it's too late to make a bug report on v18

I still have QT Pro installed on my Windows 7 machine and find it indispensable. I have all my browsers set to "ask" before running any QuickTime content to avoid the security perils of it. I haven't gotten a 32-bit version of v19 yet so I don't know if A:M will still offer QuickTime when it's available. But if you still have QuickTime installed you can still do QuickTime things in 32-bit A:M. It's free.

Well, we've tried everything we could think of. The problem is peculiar, it is not like the wrong-way normals problem. The patches are being shaded and occluded properly but the wires themselves are not. All splines are being shown even if the should be hidden by a patch.

Want to do 7pm again?

While Skyping today with Roger I noticed that his laptop, which also has both Intel and Nvidia graphics, has this same shaded-wireframe problem. His is definitely set to use Nvidia graphics with A:M

I'll call you at 7:00 Make sure to accept the contact request in Skype before that.

I've sent a contact request to "john canady jr" Is that you?

I need an actual time.

What would be a time to Skype with you?

I think the process in the article seems to be a more standard way of making a program use a graphics card. You have already done the process in the article? Don't do it yet. I'm just asking first. Do you have skype?

Has this process been suggested already? How to force your laptop to 'Run with Graphics Processor' vs. the default 'Integrated Graphics' This is an Autodesk article for Autodesk programs but I presume the issues are similar.

StartMenu>Control Panel>Device Manager>Display adapters

Isn't there a control panel we can look at to determine which graphics are being used?

I'll also note that Quicktime Pro ($29 just once) is a great compression tool with many input and output options including for audio compression, too.

Toon shading can be set in a material so that only objects with that material get it. Also you can get toon shading without Toon lines by using PluginShaders>ON Diffuse render Shader>Gradient and set the color spectrum beneath that option in the manner you do for toon shading. This can also be set in a material for selective use.

Have you tried updating you graphics card driver?

A:M will convert an image sequence to a video file. Load the image sequence into your images folder. >Save As>Animation Do this in 32-bit A:M for Quicktime choices

I will note that a key element of the entrance exam is following the directions.

I did not catch the Chimpanzee before! He's going to space?
